Mask of Broken Things is a spicy dark romance with bits of mystery/thriller flare. You follow Stella who is a young female and has survived horrific childhood trauma while also seeking revenge on those who bring harm to women and children. During the day she cheerfully operates a café, baking pastries and cookies, and she's also dating a detective. The drama is intense, and check your triggers with this read. I loved this book and Stella's revenge journey, as well as her emotional journey. I love how the MMC detective, Nick, makes Stella feel safe and warm, while also making her feel sexy.
